Memories? You mean Barbra Streisand?
The Way We Were
Memories light the corners of my mind
Misty water-colored memories of the way we were
Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another for the way we were.
Can it be that it was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line
If we had the chance to do it all again,
Tell me, would we, could we
Mem'ries may be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget
So it's the laughter we will remember
Whenever we remember the way we were.
The way we were.

If you mean the one from the musical, Cats, it is the song Memory
Daylight
See the dew on the sunflower
And a rose that is fading
Roses whither away
Like the sunflower
I yearn to turn my face to the dawn
I am waiting for the day . . .
Midnight
Not a sound from the pavement
Has the moon lost her memory?
She is smiling alone
In the lamplight
The withered leaves collect at my feet
And the wind begins to moan
Memory
All alone in the moonlight
I can smile at the old days
I was beautiful then
I remember the time I knew what happiness was
Let the memory live again
Every streetlamp
Seems to beat a fatalistic warning
Someone mutters
And the streetlamp gutters
And soon it will be morning
Daylight
I must wait for the sunrise
I must think of a new life
And I musn't give in
When the dawn comes
Tonight will be a memory too
And a new day will begin
Burnt out ends of smoky days
The stale cold smell of morning
The streetlamp dies, another night is over
Another day is dawning
Touch me
It's so easy to leave me
All alone with the memory
Of my days in the sun
If you touch me
You'll understand what happiness is
Look
A new day has begun

Memories Lyrics
musician: Cats
Midnight - not a sound from the pavement.
Has the moon lost her memory,
She is smiling alone.
In the lamplight, the withered leaves collect at my feet,
And the wind begins to moan.
Memory - all alone in the moonlight.
I can smile at the old days,
I was beautiful then.
I remember the time I knew what happiness was.
Let the memory live again.
Every street light seems to beat a fatalistic warning.
Someone mutters and the streetlamp gutters,
and soon it will be morning.
Daylight, I must wait for the sunrise.
I must think of a new life,
And I mustn't give in.
When the dawn comes tonight will be a memory too,
And a new day will begin.
Burnt out ends of smokey days,
the stale cold smell of morning.
The streetlamp dies, another night is over,
another day is dawning.
Touch me, it's so easy to leave me
All alone with the memory
Of my days in the sun.
If you touch me, you'll understand what happiness is.
Look, a new day has begun.
You might have meant this:
"Way We Were, The" lyrics:
Mem¡¯ries,
Like the corners of my mind
Misty water-colored memories
Of the way we were
Scattered pictures,
Of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another
For the way we were
Can it be that it was all so simple then?
Or has time re-written every line?
If we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me, would we? Could we?
Mem¡¯ries, may be beautiful and yet
What¡¯s too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget
So it's the laughter
We will remember
Whenever we remember...
The way we were...
the way we were...
Or maybe:
Hold on, babe
Hold on, baby
Wherever you are
This one's for you
Memories of you and me and
If this way was meant to be
I cry
Memories of you and me and
If this way was meant to be
Then why
(tell me why)
Growing up with you by my side
I thought that life would be so easy, yeah
Now that you're gone
And my heart stands all alone
I have realized what it is that I'm missing
'Cos it'll not come back
Memories of you and me (memories) and
If this way was meant to be
I cry
(I cry, I cry)
Come on baby
Memories of you and me and
If this way was meant to be
Then why
(tell me why)
Then why
Isn't gone
Or is it true that I'm just assuming
That our hearts will never beat as one
'Cos it's so hard for me to forget
All the plans and thoughts we said
I guess that's why it hurt me when you said
Hold on, be strong
Move on, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
You said
Hold on, be strong
Move on, goodbye
I've tried, oh, I've cried
But goodbye
Memories of you and me (baby) and
If this way was meant to be
I cry
(I cry)
Memories of you and me (memories) and
If this way was meant to be
Then why
(why my love)
Oh, baby
Taj (spoken)
(memories we shared)
Hey,
It's me again (that special times we had)
You know, I'm not much of a talker
(and I was say goodbye)
But I just wanted to let you know
That I think about you every day
(memories we shared)
Deep in my heart I still believe
(that special times we had)
That there'll be a time
When we're together again
(and I was say goodbye)
I love you and I miss you
Tell me why it hurts
When we still love each other
Memories of you and me and
(goodbye my love)
If this way was meant to be
(goodbye my love)
I cry
(goodbye, goodbye)
Memories of you and me and
(goodbye my love)
If this way was meant to be
(goodbye sweet), sweet love
Memories of you and me and
(tell me why we must)
If this way was meant to be
(be this way)
I cry
Memories of you and me and
(tell me why we must)
If this way was meant to be
(be this way)
Then goodbye my love

The title of this song is "The Way We Were" by Barbara Streisand.
Mem'ries light the corners of my mind,
misty watercolor mem'ries
of the way we were.
Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind,
smiles we give to one another
for the way we were.
Can it be that it was all so simple then
or has time rewritten ev'ry line?
If we had the chance to do it all again,
tell me would we?
Could we?
Mem'ries may be beautiful and yet,
what's too painful to remember,
we simply forget.

(words & music by bill strange - scott davis)
Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind
Memories, sweetened thru the ages just like wine
Quiet thought come floating down
And settle softly to the ground
Like golden autumn leaves around my feet
I touched them and they burst apart with sweet memories,
Sweet memories
Of holding hands and red bouquets
And twilight trimmed in purple haze
And laughing eyes and simple ways
And quiet nights and gentle days with you
Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind
Memories, sweetened thru the ages just like wine,
Memories, memories, sweet memories

Title Memories
Artist(s) Within Temptation
In this world you tried
not leaving me alone behind.
There's no other way.
I prayed to the gods let him stay.
The memories ease the pain inside,
now I know why.
All of my memories keep you near.
In silent moments imagine you here.
All of my memories keep you near.
Your silent whispers, silent tears.
Made me promise I'd try
to find my way back in this life.
I hope there is a way
to give me a sign you're ok.
Reminds me again it's worth it all
so I can go on.
All of my memories keep you near.
In silent moments imagine you here.
All of my memories keep you near.
Your silent whispers, silent tears.
All of my memories keep you near.
In silent moments imagine you here.
All of my memories keep you near.
Your silent whispers, silent tears.
Together in all these memories
I see your smile.
All the memories I hold dear.
Darling, you know I will love you
until the end of time.
All of my memories keep you near.
In silent moments imagine you here.
All of my memories keep you near.
Your silent whispers, silent tears.
All of my memories keep you near.
In silent moments imagine you here.
All of my memories keep you near.
Your silent whispers, silent tears.
All of my memories
